I'm as much a fan of people looking for reasons to be offended on someone
else's behalf as much as I am of people looking for reasons to be
offended on their own behalf.  Very little in this discussion was about
Christianity or Christians, per se.

If you don't like it for being off-topic, fine.  There's no reason to
believe it is "Christian-bashing", however -- because, at least for the
most part, it isn't (unless you think one person asking for the mascot to
be changed is representative of the entirety of Christianity, and by
disagreeing with him we are "Christian-bashing").
